Former KWOF/KIMN PD Bo Jaxon Named OM For SummitMedia/Springfield, MO

From All Access:

Big changes at SUMMITMEDIA/SPRINGFIELD, MO, where BO JAXON joins as OM for the five-station cluster and PD for Country KTTS, effective today (2/4). The cluster also includes Adult Hits KRVI (106.7 THE RIVER), Top 40 KSPW (POWER 96.5), and News/Talk KSGF-A/F. He will also handle mornings at KTTS alongside current co-host NANCY SIMPSON. KTTS APD/MD/morning co-host CASH WILLIAMS departed the station on FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1st after nine years.

JAXON previously was PD/morning host at KSE RADIO VENTURES KWOF (92.5 THE WOLF)/DENVER, which flipped to Sports in SEPTEMBER (NET NEWS 9/5/18), and PD at Hot AC sister KIMN.

JAXON succeeds TOM OAKES, who joined the company as OM on an interim basis last AUGUST (NET NEWS 8/7/18) to assist in the station’s transition from SCRIPPS to SUMMIT. He will continue at KTTS for the time being, assisting JAXON in getting settled. After that, he will be relocating to the TWIN CITIES to pursue his next opportunity, either in a temporary role as he did in SPRINGFIELD or a permanent programming/operations position. He can be reached at 907-350-5666 or via email here [commandertom@gmail.com], or look for him at next week’s COUNTRY RADIO SEMINAR in NASHVILLE. Prior to his move to SPRINGFIELD, OAKES was VP/GM/OM for OHANA MEDIA GROUP/ANCHORAGE, AK.

SUMMITMEDIA/SPRINGFIELD Pres. JANELLE MOFFETT said, “BO brings a ton of energy and great ideas to SPRINGFIELD. I’m confident that under BO’s leadership our stations will be an even greater source of entertainment and information for our community.”

Added JAXON, “I’m very happy to be a part of the SUMMITMEDIA group with the superstar staff in SPRINGFIELD. Great ideas are flowing, I’m ready to serve our SPRINGFIELD listeners!”
